The two of them moved to a nearby café. each ordered a drink and sat down to watch. “Thank you for your time.”
“What great timing. Do you have anything else to say?” Kang Yoo-sik asked Kwon Ha-hyeon with a slightly embarrassed expression.
"That is… I heard before that you are running a club.”
[There may be people watching around, so I'll continue to talk with skills. Please respond appropriately.]
Kang Yoo-sik replied with a smile at the sight of him not letting go of tension anywhere. "Well, it's not a big deal, but I'm running a small business."[Do not worry about it. I'm used to this.]
Kwon Ha-hyeon looked at Kang Yoo-sik with a surprised expression when he answered in the same way. It was not an easy task to have two separate conversations, but to be able to do it so easily. Kwon Ha-hyun felt a little creepy at the sight of him, who seemed proficient not only in magic, but also in other ways.
‘I'd rather not think about anything else…' Kwon Ha-hyeon, who decided to be faithful to the purpose of making a connection with Kang Yoo-sik, continued speaking.
[It would be easier to show it in documents, but I'll do that later and explain it verbally.]
In a flattering tone, he began to explain in detail the changes that had taken place since Kang Yoo-sik left for Cheonmu.
[Hmm. There are quite a few people who have been with the company for a long time, not just relatively recently, who show strange behavior, right?]
[Yes. I'm not sure, but it seems that there are quite a few people involved at the team leader level. I think I've been preparing for a long time, and after seeing your performance, I think I came up with a detailed plan.]Kang Yoo-sik, realizing that it was a trap that had been laid for a long time, looked at Kwon Ha-hyeon with a curious expression. [How did you find out about this?]
It seemed that the revelation of the fallen heavens moved a little hastily, but even so, it was quite hard to see that it was flimsy enough for a cadet to find it so easily. Kwon Ha-hyeon thought about how to answer Kang Yoo-sik's question, then spoke slowly. [It's hard to explain in detail, but it's related to my skills. I can grasp changes quickly.]
[Skills are….]
It was unheard of information prior to regression. Feeling that the evaluation of Kwon Ha-hyeon went up a little more, Kang Yoo-sik simply nodded. [Okay. Wasn't there anything special like that?]
[All I've confirmed so far is that teachers often go in and out of the storage room containing supplies.]
[It's a storage room….]
If it harbored teacher’s equipment, depending on the use, there were a lot of types that could become explosive materials. Kang Yoo-sik, who had a rough idea of how Tacheon's revelation might be planning, looked at Kwon Ha-hyeon after finishing the calculations.
[Thanks for the advice. After checking, I'll be sure to give you a response.]
[No. It must have been out of the blue, but I'm rather grateful for listening seriously.]
Certainly, it would be hard to believe a classmate just because he said something like this. However, Kang Yoo-sik, who knew how big Kwon Ha-hyeon would become in the future, had no choice but to trust him to some extent. ‘Moreover, you can clearly see his true intentions.’
Kang Yoo-sik put on a satisfied expression when he saw Kwon Ha-hyeon trying to build a friendly relationship with him. [If you find out more useful information next time, feel free to tell me. If it's true, I'll do the right thing in return.]
[Yes. Okay.]
After breaking apart with Kwon Ha-hyun. Kang Yoo-sik moved his steps towards the current situation again. ‘It seems that the preparations are almost finished… The important thing is timing.’
Since the purpose was not to appease, but to kill, he would focus on creating a commotion in the school using the equipment in the warehouse and then attacking himself. If he had in mind that he would flee after that, he would probably come with a force equal to or greater than that of the New York raid.
‘All the executives who joined the Slayer Squad are big guys… Since the Revelation of the Fallen itself is broad-legged, it should be that easy.’
Now, the important thing was what level of troops will appear, and how to beat them up. ‘I haven’t figured out the exact strands of this one yet.’
At this, Kang Yoo-sik pondered for a while and warmed up while recalling the lists Kwon Ha-hyeon called out. ‘Let’s take a quick look.’
* * *
The dark campus of Seongjin.
The manager of the management team, who managed the supplies provided to the teachers, turned on the security device and walked away.
“…Whoa.” There were people watching during his shift, so he didn't show his toughness as much as possible, but as soon as he realized that no one was around, his face showed concern. He retired after working as a D-class hunter, and for him, who lived a normal life as a management team leader, everything that happened to her recently was difficult to handle.
‘How could I get entangled in this….’ In a way, it could only be said that he was entangled with them from the moment he entered Seongjin. The management team leader sighed as he recalled the pledge he had shared with the former guild leader, who introduced him to the job in return.
She never thought the oath, which she thought was simply a secret treaty, was an object that made him participate in such a scary thing. ‘I do not know. Whatever it is, I don't know….’
Since it was said to properly erase the traces, the punishment inflicted on oneself would not be large. The manager, who decided not to think it over, shook his head and climbed into his car. And the moment he arrived at the apartment and opened the front door and entered, his throat was cut and he rolled down the floor.
“…Whoops!” The management team leader gagged at the pain and tactile feeling that passed through his body and hung himself up. A neck without a single wound, let alone cut off. However, the feeling of having just been decapitated remained terrifyingly vivid.
“You are coming home from work quite late.” A voice came from the dark hallway. In response, the management team leader raised his head with trembling eyes and saw a shadow with only an outline revealed in the darkness. He was a D-class, but he was still a hunter. Unlike normal people, he could easily see through this darkness, but he couldn't make out the shadows in front of him. It wasn't that his face was covered, but the shadow was so deep that he couldn't see it properly.
"Www… Ugh….” The bizarre feeling he had just felt and the incomprehensible figure made the management team leader collapse on the floor with his whole body weakened. The shadow standing in the hallway, Kang Yoo-sik, looked as if he had completely lost his soul, showing a satisfied expression.
“It hurts to talk about it for a long time, so let’s just keep it simple for each other.” Kang Yoo-sik, who searched for his arms, held out a specially processed pledge in front of the management team leader. A written oath with nothing visible except for the signature box. The management team leader looked up at the absurd form with trembling eyes. “This, this….”
“Please sign. Then it will be over.” To sign an oath without knowing the contents. In a sense, it was an act scarier than dying, but the manager couldn't bring himself to say it. It was because even if he had only seen the bizarre phenomena that had just occurred, he knew for sure how miserable he could be. “Ha, I will. I'll do it, so please save my life….”
"Do not worry. I have no interest in killing people. I don't have any hobbies….”
At the meaningful addition, the manager of the management team hurriedly filled in the signature line with a ballpoint pen hanging on the pledge. Ugh, a force that was incomparable to an ordinary pledge came over the body, and the trembling manager's body stiffened. Kang Yoo-sik, who saw that, removed the Black Lotus flower that was covering his appearance and took the oath. “Strange things recently ordered. And tell me everything behind it.”
"All right….” As the management team leader ordered, he began to recite things and people related to the revelation of the Fallen Heaven.
Kang Yoo-sik, who remembered all the contents, left the management team leader sitting on the sofa after the obtainment of information and released all the black lotus blooms as he escaped. The Black Lotus flower in Huung's room was completely lifted, and the illusion that deceived the eyes of those who were watching the management team leader disappeared.
‘It's a 70% hit rate. I really am a really bad guy.' Of the people Kwon Ha-hyeon thought were suspicious, 70% were actually involved in the revelation of Tacheon, and 20% of the remaining 30% were just unaware of themselves. He was listening to orders related to him.
In fact, Kang Yoo-sik admired Kwon Ha-hyun's ability once again at the hit rate that was no different than 90%. ‘After this work is over, I have to bring it in unconditionally.’
Even considering the part of the school she was usually looking at, it was difficult to see such a hit rate. Raising his evaluation of Kwon Ha-hyeon by one notch, Yoo-sik mulled over all the information he had just learned. ‘The plan over there seems to be as expected… The unfortunate thing is that counterattacks are difficult.’
The original plan was to go up the line one by one and find out the base on the other side, but the more he dug in, the harder it looked. This was because dozens of legs were intertwined like a spider's web, and if this side's movement was caught, everything could be reversed. ‘As expected, it’s best to set a trap in reverse.’
He had been preparing for this as well, but it was a bit disappointing to go through so much effort. ‘However, there's something that can pull them out… .’
While Kang Yoo-sik was wondering if there was a way, something vibrated in his pocket. Kang Yoo-sik took out his cell phone and looked at it, and Kim Jin-hyuk’s name flashed on the screen. “…What's wrong with the kid?"
Kang Yoo-sik answered the phone with a puzzled look on his face as he rarely called at dawn like this. "Uh, what's the matter?"
– Kang Yoo-sik. Can you come to my room without anyone knowing?
"Well? It's possible, but… is there something wrong?”
-That is….
Kim Jin-hyuk, who hesitated to speak for a moment, lowered his voice and answered quietly.
-Sai Yan suddenly came into the room and kept making strange noises…
“What? He did? I’ll be there right away, so wait for me."
After hanging up the phone, Kang Yoo-sik hurried to Seongjin. ‘This… Hopefully… With these intentions…’
For as long as he could remember, Yan was a madman who only knew how to fight against the strong, but that was a story years from now. In other words, they could still be normal enough to be attracted to heterosexual relationships. Besides, Kim Jin-hyuk was talented enough, not to mention handsome.
‘Bo. Even though….’
Even though she looked young on the outside, Sai Yan was in her mid-thirties. She was about the same age as Li Mei, so he couldn't do anything about it. Still, Kang Yoo-sik hurried to Kim Jin-hyuk’s place.
"I… Please get away from there….”
“… … .”
He ended up seeing Sai Yan clinging to Kim Jin-hyuk’s side. “Hey there.” “
Yoo… Yoo-sik!” When Kang Yoo-sik unraveled his Black Lotus flower and showed up, Kim Jin-hyuk stood up in amazement and approached, and Sai Yan looked at him blankly with an expressionless face.
Although they did not show their emotions, their eyes showed a lot of regret. Seeing that, he realized that she was currently complacent.
‘Isn’t this quite dangerous?’
It was none of his business, and wouldn’t it be easier to persuade her if the relationship deepened? Still, before her return, she had been accustomed to being by herself, so it was not so bad to let her live a little bit of fun this time.
While Kang Yoo-sik was dreaming up a little matchmaking session, Sai Yan slowly mouth. "You. Can you really make Kim Jin-hyuk stronger?”
At her sudden question, Kang Yoo-sik nodded her head without a moment's hesitation. "Sure. did you say that last time? I don’t know anything else, but I can guarantee that Jin-hyuk will become stronger.”
“Yoo-sik….”
“Hmm.”
Kang Yoo-sik's confirmation made Kim Jin-hyuk a slightly moved expression, while Sai Yan was deep in thought. Then she answered with a slightly ambiguous expression. “I think I would too, but I’m worried that it seems too slow compared to the other side.”
“There?"
“Yes."
Sai Yan nodded as she spoke casually. "If you cooperate in killing you, I'll let you fight a strong guy."
“… … .”
“… … .”
Kang Yoo-sik made a surprised expression at Saiyan’s answer. He was fascinated by the appearance of Sai Yan talking casually about a story that anyone could have heard secretly! ‘No… What the hell….’
He knew he was a human with a missing screw, but was it this bad? While Kang Yoo-sik was making an expression of confusion, a strong energy erupted from his side. “Who are you killing?”
A sharp momentum that didn’t leave even the slightest bit of stupidity left. Sai Yan's eyes sparkled at Kim Jin-hyuk’s stern appearance, which even surprised Kang Yoo-sik. If left unattended, it was an imminent situation that would immediately cause a collision. Kang Yoo-sik let out a sigh inside and muttered lightly. "Stop."
Pan-! The wave of magical energy that was confronting the two of them was disturbed at once, and the sight of them widened their eyes. Even if it wasn't serious, it was emitting a lot of mana, but Kang Yoo-sik removed it very easily. ‘I'm stronger than in Dalian….'
‘Also…’
At the gaze of the two, Kang Yoo-sik averted his off the eyes of the wise man who had been activated for a while and looked at Sai Yan. “Who said that?”
“I couldn’t see him because he was talking to me through the mirror, but the voice was that of an old man.”
“An old man in the mirror….”
One of the executives involved in the chuck killing faction. It matched the abilities and appearance of the top-notch demon, Sekien. Kang Yoo-sik, who immediately recognized who her opponent was, looked at Sai Yan with a slightly curious expression.
‘I didn't shake it.' Sekien's fighting ability itself was insignificant, but he had a skill that reflected the essence of her opponent, so she specialized in corrupting humans. Because of that, those who lived instinctively like Sai Yan could easily be agitated, but they managed not to be swayed.
‘No. Although she was shaken… It's surprising that he talked to me.'
Perhaps even Sekien, who was trying to conciliate Sai Yan, didn't expect this. "Didn't you tell me to keep that a secret?"
"I did it."
“But why are you telling me?”
Sai Yan calmly answered Kang Yoo-sik's question. “I thought you might be able to entertain me more than that guy.”
It was a simple, but also the most convincing answer. Kang Yoo-sik, once again convinced of what kind of person Sai Yan was, smiled after rolling his head for a while. “There is a more fun way. Are you interested?”
* * *
“Are you really conciliating Sai Yan?”
The old man, Sekien, smiled lightly at the man's question. “It wasn’t appeasement, it just made me realize. That's no different than a demon wearing a human mask.”
“I heard it as a rumor, but it seems that it was more than I expected.”
“It’s the year that I fought with 20 people and made them all crippled. It's strange that it's normal.”
In the past, Sai Yan fought against a guild made up of 4 A-class hunters and 16 B-class hunters and made all of them crippled. However, even if they were the culprits, their hands were so rough that it turned out to be the Yans’ fault. As a result, he was put on probation in Gyosim-dong for decades, and Tacheon's revelation had been keeping an eye on Sai Yan ever since.
“Maybe it’s because of his pride as a soldier yet, he doesn’t have any intention of becoming a Mine, but that’s only a matter of time. It will probably be possible to mine in a few years.”
“Hmm. Then she'd better send it to her branch of commitment. She fits her personality.”
As the man and Sekien were having a conversation, one frowned. “It doesn’t matter anyway, so decide what to do with Kang Yoo-sik. It’s the timing to loosen up, so I’m anxious.”
The two nodded to see how much they could relate to the woman's story. “Since the Saiyan appeasement is over, there is no reason to hesitate. It begins as soon as the cleanup is finished.”
“It will be over by the end of today, so please wait a little longer.”
“Finish quickly and come.”
After the story was decided to carry out the strategy, Sekien immediately began preparing to contact Sai Yan. A mirror was placed in the center of a place where complicated magic circles were intertwined. Standing in front of her, Sekien activated his own skill, Luck Outer Journey 雲外鏡. A faint ripple lingered in the mirror, and Yan's figure appeared while he was standing there blankly.
‘It’s completely over…’
Sekien looked at it with a satisfied expression and attempted to connect with the space beyond him. And finally, the moment of complete connection with the mirror on the other side.
Pacan! The hand that had broken through the mirror grabbed at the collar. “Caught.”
